Gonna build me a log cabin
on a mountain so high,
So I can see Willy,
as she goes walking by.
Chorus:
Oh, the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird,
Lord, she warbles as she flies;
She'll never say cuckoo
Till the fourth day of July.
Well I played cards in old England

Wondering why you treat me this way.
Oh, the cuckoo she's a pretty bird.
Lord, she warbles as she flies.
She'll cause never more trouble
And she'll tell you no lies.
There's one thing that's
been a puzzle
Since the day that time began:
A man's love for, for his woman
And her sweet love for her man.
